felded without an error to-day and batted freely,
defeating the Metropolitans with ease. Orr
collided with Sommers in the first inning and
was so badly hurt that Holbert had to be put on
first base. The visitors were unable to do any
thing with Kilroys pitching, and played rather
loosely in the field, though Radford Cid some
brilliant work at second base. Score:

ST. LOUIS April 2I-The Cleveland club
made their first appearance against the Browns
to-day, and were badly beaten in dull and I'M
interesting game. They played like very
weary aggregation. and their work was of very
lstless character. The Browns every way out
played them, and Caruthers lad them com
pletely at his mercy. Sweeney and Herr played
execrably. Pechiny was pounded at will Car
utherss superb pitching and heavy hitting, in
Guiding q home run. Boyle's excellent catching,
double play by Sylvester and Comiskey and a
running high catch by Allen were the best feat
